Book: 48 laws of power
Oysters open their shells completely during the full moon; when the crab sees an oyster, he throws a pebble or seaweed inside it, so that the oyster cannot close again and becomes the crab's prey.

The most important of these skills, and also the main foundation of power, is the ability to control your feelings. Emotional reaction to a situation is the biggest obstacle to power, a mistake that will cost you far more than any temporary satisfaction you get from expressing feelings.
